Abstract
A estation and measurements inspection are di erent but com-
plementary approaches towards the same goal: ascertaining the
integrity of sensor nodes in wireless sensor networks. In this paper
we compare the bene ts and drawbacks of both techniques and seek
to determine how to best combine them. However, our study shows
that no single solution exists, as each choice introduces changes
in the measurements collection process, a ects the a estation pro-
tocol, and gives a di erent balance between the high detection
rate of a estation and the low power overhead of measurements
inspection. erefore, we propose three strategies that combine
measurements inspection and a estation in di erent ways, and a
way to choose between them based on the requirements of di erent
applications. We analyse their performance both analytically and
in a simulator. e results show that the combined strategies can
achieve a detection rate close to a estation, in the range 96-99%,
whilst keeping a power overhead close to measurements inspection,
in the range 1-10%.
